Full Disclosure

Remember the hue and cry when 60 Minutes aired the interview with counterterrorism expert Richard Clarke, but failed to disclose that Clarke's book was published by another subsidiary of CBS parent Viacom?

Good.

Remember the hue and cry every time NBC fails to disclose in its numerous reports on the invasion of Iraq that its parent, General Electric, has multimillon dollar government contracts for the reconstruction of Iraq? Not to mention the untold millions it made on building the arsenal for the destruction of Iraq.

Didn't think so.
